Seeing an anime character die allegedly inspired a 14 year-old Russian boy to jump one hundred feet to his death, says a report.

According to Mail Online, Leonid Hmelev committed suicide after seeing his favorite character, Naruto character Itachi Uchiha, die in anime Naruto: Shippuden. The character's death reportedly saddened the boy.P

It's been known since 2008 that the character dies.P

‘I always told him he spent too much time watching the TV-he didn't know what was reality and what was fiction anymore," said his father, Ivan.P

Hmelev left home after watching Naruto: Shippuden, leaving a message on a social networking site that he was "planning an ending". His body was discovered after being missing for two days.P




Considering this event, if naruto end , there might be suicides by some because there are many similar fans. What are your thoughts?

In Soviet Russia, Anime kills you.

Kishimoto can't be responsible for crazy people. There are thousands of fictional stories where fictional characters die.

They should watch other anime's too

The saddest thing is that Itachi is revived by kabuto later on

It's the same with video games , movies , anime etc ,some people are stupid to not know what's real & what's not .

And the companies are always getting blame for the retards mistakes .

There will always be mental people doing weird things because a lot can go wrong with someone's brain. If it weren't anime, it would be something else. That is a problem for doctors and psychologists who treat people, not anyone else's problem.

Not Kishimoto's problem that his parents let him get that entangled in a series. Parents fault.. There aren't that many "crazy" people reading Naruto and they're so into it to the point that people would kill themselves. I don't remember anyone killing themselves because Harry Potter or the Original Star Wars was coming to a close, so why would Naruto be any different. This is the one odd event but still.. >->
